Two questions related to OBIEE 11g setup in Linux

Hi,
1.Do we need to setup JDK 1.6 and above before installing OBIEE? as per below post OBIEE uses it's own JDK.
OBIEE 11g on Windows 7 (64 bit)
2. Do we need to configure DHCP loopback adapter in Linux as well as we do in windows? If Yes how can I do it in Linux?
Please let me know the answers ASAP.
Thanks
Jay.

Hi Jay,
1.Do we need to setup JDK 1.6 and above before installing OBIEE?Not required
2. Do we need to configure DHCP loopback adapter in Linux as well as we do in windows? If Yes how can I do it in Linux?On Linux x86 operating systems, configure the host to resolve host names to the loopback IP address by modifying the /etc/hosts file to contain the following entries:
127.0.0.1 hostname.domainname hostname
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
After doing so, check that the host name resolves to the loopback IP address by entering the following command:
/bin/ping hostname.domainname

Hi,
Have you try to increase MaxPermSize, it may occure memory issue.
change the Middleware/ORACLE_BI1/oui/oraparam.ini and fine it like below
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -mx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m" then try to change it
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -mx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m"
(i.e:It will increase the numbers for allocating more memory) then save it and then try to run config.bat (software only/enterprise) method and configure it.
Thanks

Fail installing OBIEE 11g on Oracle Linux 5 64 bits

Hello,
I am trying to install OBIEE 11g over Oracle Linux 5 (64 bits), but I can't. I have the following issue:
INST-07008: Validation of Oracle Home location failed. User does not have permission to create home/instance location
INST-07282: Specified Middleware home location does not exist
In the Oracle Middleware Home, I have specified "/root/Oracle/Middleware".
I have following these steps:
1) Install Oracle DB 11g R2 (OK)
2) Install jdk for Linux 64 bits (OK)
3) Install weblogic
I have done the installation as "root" user
Middleware Home Directory = /root/oracle/Middleware (OK)
4) Install RCU as root (OK)
5) Install OBI 11g
To execute ./runInstaller it is necessary be as oracle user.
I have changed permissions in /root/Oracle/Middleware (chmod 777), but the issue is the same.
I appreciate any idea to solve the issue.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Monica.

Hello,
no, I have installed OBIEE as oracle user with software only option, with root isn't possible.
So, I don't know if it is necessary I installed WebLogic as oracle user to have permission in middleware path...
Regards.

Running OBIEE 11g services for Linux

Hi everybody,
I would like to know the way to start OBIEE 11g services in a Linux (Red Hat) machine.
As far as I have seen in the web, there are four main steps to perform in order to make OBIEE running:
Run WebLogic.
Run NodeManager.
Run ManagedServer.
Run OBI Components (using OPMN).
The problem I have is that in our installation there is no ManagedServer (bi_server1). Therefore I deduce that OBIEE was installed as simple version (actually I don’t know where I can see whether it is simple or enterprise version). So the question in my case is: how to run OBIEE services without ManagedServer? Otherwise, is there any way to upgrade from simple to enterprise version, or I should just uninstall and then install the enterprise version?
Thanks in advance,
Hibai.

Thanks for the reply Sasi. Now I know that we have a Simple Installation.
Anyway, I'm still not able to make OBIEE available. If I execute the commands you provided me, I see some errors in corresponding created files. However, running them without nohup option and without any other parameter (just the .sh file), WebLogic appears available and OBI components seem to be running as well:
Processes in Instance: instance1
---------------------------------+--------------------+---------+---------
ias-component                    | process-type       |     pid | status

coreapplication_obis1            | OracleBIServerCom~ |   11311 | Alive
Am I doing something wrong? In principle the steps you mentioned (which are also those ones that I was executing the previous days) have been executed properly, so I'm a bit confused.
Thanks again,
Hibai.

Starting OBIEE 11g services in Linux

Hi Gurus,
I have installed OBIEE 11g on Linux 32 bit machine, Procedure i used to follow to start the services, using putty:
1. Run ./startWeblogic.sh after it comes to running mode, it comes back to $
2. After it returns to $, i start nodeManager.sh
but now, after i do the first step from putty, though running mode has come, it is not coming back to $ where i can start the node manager, hence i am unable to start node manager from the $ console
Is this a server problem? pls help..
I did Ctrl+c and tried starting startWeblogic.sh again, but its again stopping at running mode and not returning to $
Kindly advice what can be done
Thanks,
Sree.

we had run the scripts using nohup "nohup ./startWeblogicServer.sh &" and reopened putty to run other nodemanager and opmnctl scripts, now everything has started and working fine.
Thanks all..

Creating Compound lay out with two different pivot tables OBIEE 11g?

Hello,
I am trying to add two different pivot tables in one compound lay out and add a view selector to it, so that i can choose one at a time. Please advice how can i do this.
Thanks

First of all, the expression is "please advise" not "please advice." I thought I'd mention it because I see it so much in the forum. :) (Freebie.)
Okay, on the surface, your question seems so basic that it makes me wonder what you mean. If you are absolutely brand-new to OBIEE than consult the manual:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10544/creatingviews.htm#BACCBCBA
If you are stuck on a particular step, then describe the problem in detail.

Query related to obiee 11g cluster

Hi Gurus,
We have setup the cluster envirnment in production.
In that envirornment, we can see
1) two console
2) One EM.
3) two analytics
In the cluster envirnment, do we have only one EM? Is there anything went wrong in installation?
Any response would be highly appreciated...

Hi Jay,
1.Do we need to setup JDK 1.6 and above before installing OBIEE?Not required
2. Do we need to configure DHCP loopback adapter in Linux as well as we do in windows? If Yes how can I do it in Linux?On Linux x86 operating systems, configure the host to resolve host names to the loopback IP address by modifying the /etc/hosts file to contain the following entries:
127.0.0.1 hostname.domainname hostname
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
After doing so, check that the host name resolves to the loopback IP address by entering the following command:
/bin/ping hostname.domainname

How to add two columns in criteria(OBIEE 11g)

Hi,
I am trying to add two columns in a criteria in obiee
*"Fact - OLB Processed Invoices"."Invoice Amount - Functional Currency"__"Fact - OLB Processed Invoices"."AR Tax Amount - Invoice Currency"
but the problem is :-
The first column have 500000000 and the second column contains NULL values the actual table. I think this might be the problem when I am trying to add them it is giving no output.
just a blank box.
Can any one tell me how can we add columns in this condition.
Thank to one and all.

Try IFNULL(expr, value)
for other column
"Fact - OLB Processed Invoices"."Invoice Amount - Functional Currency"+IFNULL("Fact - OLB Processed Invoices"."AR Tax Amount - Invoice Currency",0)

Will you pls let me know whether i can try in single view(title/static/narrative) with html code like below :
<img src="smiley.gif" alt="Smiley face" align="middle" />
If so pls provide the details.
